Hi all,
gp150 in the last few weeks has started holding back, stuttering in all gears when at higher revs.
Ive changed carbs, fuel tap, spark plug and cdi unit, not sure where to go next.
All advice welcome please.

A Few Thoughts , HT Lead ,Timing slipped , Stator breaking down , Wireing loom broke/trapped earthing to frame, have you tried with green wire removed from ignition on CDI ?

mine was doing same, a very learnèd gentleman found that my crank seal has gone. I assume that it is holding up at lower stresses but gives out under a bit of pressure

(thanks Phil :) )
